Vanguard VEO 2X 235ABP Aluminum Travel Tripod – 4-in-1 Tripod/Monopod, Compact 5-Section Design, ARCA-Compatible Head

If you’re serious about travel photography, you don’t want to choose between portability and performance—and with the VEO 2X 235ABP, you don’t have to.

This is not just a tripod. It’s a 4-in-1 travel system engineered for creators who need to adapt instantly. In seconds, it transforms from a full tripod to a monopod, or switches from a precision ball head to a pan-handle video head—giving you unmatched flexibility whether you’re shooting landscapes, tracking wildlife, or capturing smooth video.

At just 3.38 lbs and folding down to 15.8", it’s built for real travel. Throw it in your backpack, carry-on, or strap it to your kit—you’ll barely notice it’s there until you need it. And when you do, it extends to 57.1" of working height, giving you a stable, full shooting platform anywhere.

The patented rotating center column is where this tripod separates itself. It deploys quickly, adjusts easily, and pairs with a low-angle adapter and reversible column so you can shoot everything from ground-level macro to elevated perspectives without changing gear.

The included BP-50 ball/pan head adds serious versatility. Tighten it down for still photography, or attach the removable telescopic pan handle and instantly transition into smooth, controlled video panning. Combined with the ARCA-compatible quick-release plate, switching setups is fast and frustration-free.

Despite its compact size, it supports up to 13.2 lbs, making it a dependable platform for mirrorless and DSLR systems. And with 5-section legs, twist locks, and interchangeable rubber/spiked feet, you get stable footing whether you're on pavement, dirt, or uneven terrain.

This is the tripod you actually bring with you—and the one that ensures you never miss the shot because you left your gear behind.
